A travel writer says you can turn any trip into a life-changing experience by asking these 3 questions

When people picture life-changing trips they often think of extended adventures to faraway places — a summer spent backpacking around Europe, a work assignment abroad, an Eat, Pray, Love trip of personal discovery and healing . The idea that travel can be transformative is certainly right. Studies have linked time abroad to entrepreneurship, and experts insist that periods in other cultures can make you a more flexible, empathetic and self-aware person. Traveling not only helps you get to know the world, it also helps you get to know yourself. But as self-recommended as adventures to distant shores might be, the truthRead News

Trump is in growing legal and political danger after a whirlwind week

For months, it was unclear whether the House select committee investigating Jan. 6, 2021, would be able to overcome his obstruction and penetrate his West Wing. Baffled critics complained that the Justice Department was not poking their inner circle to examine whether their efforts to steal the 2020 election violated the law. But now critics who, through two impeachments, a Russia investigation and multiple scandals, have come to share Trump’s belief that he could shoot someone on Fifth Avenue in New York and get away with it feel that his impunity may be in doubt for the first time.

The U.S. Senate on Tuesday voted 64 to 32 to advance a $280 billion “chips plus” subsidy bill, and as always in politics, there’s plenty more. Washington’s money always comes with strings attached, and we hope semiconductor CEOs know what they signed up for. This message could not have been clearer from President Joe Biden on Tuesday when he told business and labor leaders on a conference call that the bill’s $52 billion in grants for Intel and other chipmakers would not be “a blank check for business”. Biden said he “should personally sign the biggest grants.” Hint to companiesRead News
